We just hang Diva Zappa's wonderful psychedelic work in the store. Her colorful bold insanities are comprised of mutations of her photographs of knitting and musicians with incredible embroidery and handstitched wool woven across the surface.

I am completely in awe of people who have the talent to make something that we have all seen a lot of (in this case pictures of animals in Africa), new, fresh and exciting. We have Nick Brandt's new book "A Shadow Falls" in the store and I am in love with the texture, light and composition in his photographs. There is a touring exhibition of his work at the moment which I highly recommend -- if it comes to a town near you - go -- tour dates are on his site - here.

Apologies for my photos of his photos in the book -- I didn't do them justice but these are some of my favorites!
